Ask JTF for Sunday, May 10, 2009
eb22:
Shalom Chaim,
Last month on an " Ask JTF", program, you provided a terrific in-depth answer regarding my question about additional examples of Biblical Prophecies that became a reality in the modern era.
http://jtf.org/forum_english/index.php/topic,33650.0.html
Near the end of your answer, you mentioned you would provide an answer to the following question, if asked on the next "Ask JTF" program. I would like to ask the question this week. The question is as follows:
Why do people and the nations have to support the Jews and what happens if they don't support the Jews?
Thanks as always, eb22.
Maimonides:
Shalom Chaim and thank you as always for your hard work and for answering my questions.
Why is it appropriate to curse the name of Ariel Sharon, but not Menachem Begin?
I know that Begin help found the modern State of Israel by leading the Irgun, and ordered the attack to take out Iraq's nuclear reactor, but in a massive betrayal gave away the Sinai, and launched the disastrous war with Lebanon in 1982, by tying the IDF's hands behind their back.
On the other hand, Sharon was a military genius who saved Israel in the Yom Kippur War(with the grace of Hashem of course) by crossing the Suez Canal, and cutting off the Arab army from Egypt. As Defense Minister he wanted to crush Lebanon, but due to the phony Sabra & Shatila massacres had to resign. Finally he went to the Temple Mount, and declared it will always belong to Israel (I know that was a political stunt, but it still was a positive event). His massive betrayal was giving away Gaza.
So what is the difference between cursing the name of Sharon as opposed to Begin?
George:
According to the exit poll 62% of Asians voted for Osama. Osama isn't good for any non-parasitic group and Asians are industrious so why do you think these Asians voted for him and why do they always vote democrat?
Only 10% of Whites in Alabama voted for Osama, which is the lowest percentage of any White group by State, but these people are more anti-Semitic than other Whites. Do you give them credit for being opposed to Osama?

Prior to the creation of the state of Israel
was it still mandatory by god in the torah for all jews to live in the holy land?

Wasn't there a time when you were protesting the Soviets and Barbara Streisand was in the area and you told her off. Or was this another actress.
